Live theatre. Too bad there is no way to escape the play without getting arrested.

That happened to me once when I unfolded my pocket knife on a mime.

The first order he signed was for no more vacations for Michelle and the kids.

He gets a waiver on this one, though. Reggie “His” Love, too.

He has also promised that if we raise taxes by a trillion, he will cut his vacations in half.

I’ve been paying out of pocket to rent a place 900 miles from home to work on a federal contract since June 2009. Paid first and last month’s rent to start. Next rent check is due in a few days. If I’m out of a job, my landlord gets notice and I go home. That saves me $1500/month immediately. It will be nice to see my wife and pups. Haven’t been home since Jan 2nd.

So it's official.

Obama lied to Romney in the third debate when he said that sequestration would never happen.

He knew it would all along.
